UK Video Game Chart: FIFA Street returns to the top spot

Kinect Star Wars looses its hold at the top and slips to No.4.

EA's FIFA Street has returned to the top of the All Formats All Prices UK video game chart in a week which saw little in the way of new releases.

Mass Effect 3 and FIFA 12 each moved up one place to No.2 and No.3, respectively, whilst last week's No.1, Kinect Star Wars, drops to No.4 with a 55 per cent drop week on week. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 takes fifth.

The only new release to chart inside the Top 40 is Nintendo's Pandora's Tower, which at No.38 doesn't look likely to stick around very long.

Atari's The Witcher 2: Assassin's of Kings Enhanced Edition is the game to watch this week, with its Tuesday launch likely to help it secure to place inside the Top 5. After suffering a huge disappointment with Ridge Racer Unbounded, Atari needs a hit and The Witcher 2 certainly has the review scores to warrant strong sales.

For probably the first time in years I only own 2 games from the top 20 - Skyrim, which I bought, and Arkham City, courtesy of Videogamer.com, which I've yet to play.

There are just so many good games coming out nowadays, on top of the so many good games that came out in the last two years, that I've had to stop buying just to play catchup.

There are another 6 games in the current top 20 that I want to get, but as I'm unlikely to be playing them within the next 8 months it just seems pointless, so might as well get them later (and 50-75% cheaper).

I have a feeling the number of gamers in the same position as me is growing, although I have no scientific proof of this. However, if my feeling is true, the way games are marketed and sold will need to change accordingly.
